Michael, I just went through this, and I think I can help you. The /tmp/ks.cfg is a very misleading and generic error. I received the same error on a number of different issues. 1.) My kickstart floppy was formatted in ext2fs. Doh! Has to be vfat. 2.) I made the wonderful mistake of switching subnets. In other words, I had just kickstarted a couple of desktops and then I switched to servers. I forgot the servers were on a different subnet and that subnet did not have a DHCP server on it. I had another instance of receiving the message, but I forgot what it was. Anyway, the point is don't take the message too literally. When I get that message now, I go through all of my abc's of kickstarting and 9/10 times I find that I have overlooked something basic. -Todd -----Original Message----- From: kickstart-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:kickstart-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Michael Clay Sent: Friday, April 26, 2002 10:15 AM To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Bootable KickStart CD I'm trying to make a bootable cdrom for kickstart installations. I have a diskette that works great. I've taken an image of the diskette and burned it onto a cdrom. The cdrom boots, the RedHat installation begins but it can't seem to find the ks.cfg. I get an error telling me that it can't find /tmp/ks.cfg. I've tried creating a /tmp/ks.cfg on the cdrom image. When I do this, the error goes away but the ks.cfg file is never read (i.e. I still have to fill out the information on all the screens). Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
